Screamer Squadron was one of hundreds of fighter units created during the New Republic's recovery during the Yuuzhan Vong War. The squadron used X-wing starfighters.
As a significant percentage of experienced New Republic pilots were killed or badly injured during the first few years of the war, there was a large shortage of pilots to lead these new units, for example, Barefoot Squadron led by a sixteen year old Jedi Knight. Such was the case with Screamer Squadron, which was led by a twenty three year old pilot who was by no means a veteran.
Screamer Squadron flew X-wing starfighters when it took part in the botched mission against the Peace Brigade Government of the Ylesia system.
